Andreev conductance of a domain wall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
At low temperatures, the transport through a superconductor-ferromagnet tunnel interface is due to tunneling of electrons in pairs. Exchange field of a monodomain ferromagnet aligns electron spins and suppresses the two electron tunneling.

Optimisation of a three-terminal nonlinear heat nano-engine

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
Charge and heat transport in nano-structures is dominated by non-equilibrium effects which strongly influence their behaviour. These effects are studied in a setup consisting of three external leads, one of which is considered as a heat reservoir and is ...

Currents and fluctuations of quantum heat transport in harmonic chains

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
Heat transport in open quantum systems is particularly susceptible to the modeling of system–reservoir interactions. It thus requires us to consistently treat the coupling between a quantum system and its environment.

Quantum and Classical Binomial Distributions for the Charge Transmitted through Coherent Conductor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We discuss controversial results for the statistics of charge transport through coherent conductors. Two distribution functions for the charge transmitted was obtained previously, first by L.Levitov and G.Lesovik, [JETP Letters Vol.55 p.555 (1992)] and ...

Long-Range Electron Transfer and Electronic Transport Through Macromolecules

open access: yes, 2005
A theory of electrical transport through molecular wires is used to estimate the electronic factor in the intramolecular electron transfer (ET) in porphyrin-nitrobenzene supermolecules, and to analyze its structure.

Invariance of the Kohn (sloshing) mode in a conserving theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It is proven that the center of mass (COM or Kohn) oscillation of a many-body system in a harmonic trap coincides with the motion of a single particle as long as conserving approximations are applied to treat the interactions.

A proof of the Kramers degeneracy of transmission eigenvalues from antisymmetry of the scattering matrix

open access: yes, 2008
In time reversal symmetric systems with half integral spins (or more concretely, systems with an antiunitary symmetry that squares to -1 and commutes with the Hamiltonian) the transmission eigenvalues of the scattering matrix come in pairs.

Optical response of electrons in a random potential

open access: yes, 2004
Using our recently developed Chebyshev expansion technique for finite-temperature dynamical correlation functions we numerically study the AC conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ of the Anderson model on large cubic clusters of up to $100^3$ sites.

Turbulent flow in graphene

open access: yes, 2010
We demonstrate the possibility of a turbulent flow of electrons in graphene in the hydrodynamic region, by calculating the corresponding turbulent probability density function.

Convergence of macrostates under reproducible processes

open access: yes, 2010
I show that whenever a system undergoes a reproducible macroscopic process the mutual distinguishability of macrostates, as measured by their relative entropy, diminishes.
